[QUOTE="nlj, post: 659333, member: 17650"] I don't think nuns wear open-toed shoes. At least the ones who ran my school didn't. I seem to remember flat black lace-ups, like boys' school shoes. (Haven't you got any boys' black lace-up school shoes in your wardrobe Echo?) nice look, especially with evening dresses. I was reading about the women who were prevented from walking down the red carpet at the Cannes Film Festival a few weeks ago because they weren't wearing high heels. Probably some of them cried with frustration. Seems pretty petty. What is it with judging women for what they have on their feet or having rules about what they have on their feet? Have you read about the women of China who had their feet bound because they were told to? [URL]http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-china-31964279[/URL] The frustration of this non-visit would have led me to tears. I can be led to tears by the frustration of not being able to remove the packaging from something or not being able to get the lid off a jar, so driving miles to see my son and then being stopped because my toes were visible would have tipped me over the edge... a long way over the edge I think. I think you're doing fine Echo. You'll be fine in court and you'll be fine next time you visit your son wearing regulation footwear. What books has he read lately? [/QUOTE]
